Angel investors are investors who fund early-stage and startup companies in exchange for equity ownership interest. Successful companies like Uber, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook have all paired up with angel investors.

Local entrepreneurs will learn who these organizations are, who to contact, their investment parameters and process.
